If you plan to travel between the Morongo Basin and Arizona on route 62 early this week, allow some more time, because you’ll need an alternate route.
Caltrans will close State Route 62 just east of State Route 177 (SR-177) junction from 6 a.m. Monday, March 18 to 6 a.m. Wednesday, March 20. The closure is needed to replace two existing culverts with larger pipers in order to improve drainage capacity.
